Had a fantastic shoot with Sophia and a great day out generally. She is a clearly very skilled and knocks out awesome poses bang bang bang one after the other. We did some really tough acrobatics which were mostly new to her and she took to it instantly. Very physically strong and with great balance and good communication. Working through variations on moves, completely understanding the photographers requirements and my own physical limitations to get the shots on point and in safety.

I really hope to work with her again in the near future

I cannot believe how long its been since we last worked as Sophia is a very busy lady and rightly so. I was working with Kevin a model who specializes in Ariel & Acrobatic modelling along with his stunt assistant for the day the lovely Sophia.

This type of modelling required expert advise else at least serious muscle strain or broken limbs could easily be the end result. I was totally blown away by Sophia`s commitment and professionalism to push herself to achieve such amazing poses.

We always work well together as we instinctively know whats required and equally important we have a good laugh which is essential part of any photo shoot. I have previewed the images from the shoot and I`m well impressed with the team effort.

Cannot wait to get the chance to work with this fantastic young lady again.

As always Highly Recommended.

Had a fab shoot with marvellous Sophia.

She is a very talented model with a very fit dancer body, strong and flexible but at the same time very curvaceous.

Sophia is a tireless worker and needs little or no direction.

Her range of poses covers a wide spectrum, from the dancer ones, through the more artistic and convoluted, to the moody and emotional.

I enjoyed working with Sophia very much and I hope to be able to shoot with her again in the future.

Highly recommended. :)

This was my second "share a shoot" day with highly talented model Sophia and Martin G and this time as a bonus we were joined by model Sam-Jones who complemented Sophia well in so many ways. Pre-shoot communication with Sophia was exceptional. Sophia and Sam worked really well together. Martin was full of ideas and came with a list of suggested shots and locations to shoot which Sophia (and Sam) responded to well. Sophia got herself into some awesome positions including hanging from a window and posing nude alongside a high speed railway line. Sophia is a confident and highly experienced model who responds well to suggestion and direction as well as coming up with great ideas of her own. I am sure we will have created some great images of Sophia and this time Sam too. The bonus will be shots of the two of them together in a range of different settings inspired by Martin's great ideas.

Having shot for a few hours on location we took a break and enjoyed a late liquid lunch which was a great opportunity to chat and get to know each other better. As a bonus the weather was good enough for us to sit outside! Great beer but better company!

We then went to Martin's home studio for further shots of Sophia and Sam together. Again they worked well even though the weather and the lighting made it a hot experience! Martin took the lead in terms of lighting and camera settings and Sophia and Sam finished off with some impromptu fun shots to end a great collaboration between the four of us.

Sophia is highly recommended to photographers of all levels for a "share a shoot" day with other models and/or photographers or take the opportunity to shoot Martin's home studio. Alternatively a one to one shoot either on location or studio is also recommended. Sophia is a joy to work with.

Had a shoot with Lovely Sophia yesterday. What a talented and professional personality! It was a pleasure for me to meet and work with this beautiful lady. No fuss no showing off.... Just lots of fun new experience and knowledge... Can't wait for pictures and hope to work together again. ☺☺☺

Definitely recommend!

I've shot with Sophia a couple of times now and it's always a pleasure. She's a beautiful model with an amazing figure and a great attitude. She's always very pleasant, relaxed and easy to work with, and we've shot some fantastic content so far. Sophia's pre-shoot communication is excellent and she comes well prepared with plenty of outfits etc - I'd highly recommend her and look forward to the next shoot!

Second Shoot with Sophia and it was quite simply fantastic.Shot for the whole day, half in a studio and half a home shoot and I am extremely happy with the huge amount of great images we got today.

Sophia was on time, fully prepared, happy to try ideas and offer suggestions, is chatty, very funny, poses with ease, dances and that's just the start. We were already planning our third shoot when we hadn't even finished the second one....that's how good I think Sophia is.

As previously stated, very highly recommended

See all previous references! Still none better, still gob smacked that I get the honour to work with this fabulous professional model and dancer as often as I do.

Always a privilege, always fun, always productive above and beyond the norm.

I am seriously not very often lost for words but after spending 8 hours in the company of and photographing his incredible model I am totally numb struck. If you know the film weird Science where two teenage boys dream up and create the perfect women well its Sophia West! I kid you not she truly has an astonishing figure and her modelling is just a whole universe beyond perfect. she is a true pose machine and does't require any guidance at all, I could photograph her washing dishes and be very happy. I honestly cannot tell you how good she is you have to work with her to witness it yourself. Not only is she a beautiful women and an amazing model she is bloody well really friendly, down to earth, knows amazing locations and is easy going as well, I had to pinch myself to make sure she was real! I have had a fantastic time working with her and enjoyed every single minute, 8 hours honestly was not enough, if I don't get to work with Sophia again I will throw my camera away. Sophie comes with an almighty recommendation from me,you really must work with her!!

Had a brilliant shoot with the amazing Sophia today at one of her 'recommended' locations.

Pre shoot comms were excellent and comprehensive, with all details agreed ahead of time. Sophia arrived early with a wide selection of outfits and ideas.

Sophia's looks and ability to pose speak for themselves in her portfolio, however I can add that she a pleasure to work with, fun, friendly and an interesting person. The time flew by but we were able to create some great images thanks to Sophia's 'can do' approach and professionalism. Sophia really did not need any direction but was happy to follow my lead where suggested.

I look forward to working with her again and highly recommend Sophia to anyone looking for a beautiful, friendly and professional model for creative projects.

I was asked to join Sophia and Martin G at an all day photo shoot in a large entertainment venue in Essex.

This was a real treat as we were also shooting a new dance show reel for the extremely talented and versatile Sophia.

The venue being very spacious meant we could use full size backdrops and fly the studio lights high plus use an assorted combination of modifiers to create many different moods.

The more I work with this young lady the more impressed I become , from classical ballet to modern freestyle dance Sophia performed effortlessly and gracefully.

Once the video show reel was in the can we utilised the space to shoot several ideas and styles.

It was an amazing day and I would like to say a big thank you to Sophia and Jan & Martin for all their help in making it special.

Highly recommended

Cannot wait to our next project

Thanks

Still astonished. I knew from the first time I worked with this young lady that I had hit the jackpot. I do mean the ultimate jackpot at that. I can only re-iterate those sentiments again having run out of superlatives to describe Sophia.

I have never in all my years met or worked with anyone quite like this woman. It is so difficult to describe just what a true honour and privilege it always is working with her and just how I have to pinch myself each and every time that she is for real and still remains so modest and down to earth way beyond what her extraordinary talents would suggest.

Professional above and beyond anyone I ever met or worked with, ethical, honest, seriously hard working, dedicated, exceptional personality, and passionate about creating great imagery, this woman has the lot, and I might add, much more then the vast masses here or anywhere else online. Plus of course her natural stunning beauty and figure that put the icing on the cake of every single shoot style I achieve with her.

On a lighter note, the fits of giggles in-between the serious work are now legendary and quite honestly a huge part of what makes every single shoot with Sophia that extra special.

****HIGHLY RECOMMENDED**** Make no mistake, IMHO you will never work with a better model and person than Sophia west.

First shoot with Sophia and what can I say...what a shoot! Honestly got that many great images I am not sure where to start!

Sophia's comms before the shoot where the best I have had on Purpleport. Lots of great detail and answered all the questions I had. On the day the site chosen was amazing with so many possibilities that I will need to go back again as we didn't even get round half of it!

I sent all the ideas over I wanted to try pre-shoot and Sophia arrived with everything needed packed and ready to go. Nothing was too much trouble in terms of where to shoot and outfits to try.

On top of this Sophia is genuinely a really nice person to talk to - and also prone to fits of giggles which makes for some great out take style shots ;) - which meant the 4hrs flew by.

Already agreed we would shoot again so very highly recommended.

I had another amazing shoot with Sophia as part of share a shoot organised by good friend Martin G. As always Sophia gives 110% and works tirelessly to ensure we were able to create some great images

.

Though I have been very lucky to work with Sophia on several occasions she still pulls out the most incredible poses some of which look impossible.

First impression of the images take were Wow!! these are going to hard to sort as there are so many I liked Sophia is such a friendly dedicated young lady I cannot praise her enough and I totally recommend working with her.

Thanks for making todays shoot another memorable one

Yesterday had the distinct pleasure and privilege of a wonderful shoot with Sophia. Can not say enough about her professionalism and how fun she made the shoot. It was a total pleasure.

All the pre-shoot discussion with Sophia was handled thoroughly in a timely way and helped us be well prepared for the day of the shoot. It also gave me great jnsight jnto her personality and how fun she was.

On location outdoors, Sophia's ability to climb trees and scale buildings to get to great areas to shoot was only surpassed by her wonderful ability to pose while precariously sitting, laying or dangling from them.

Her ideas together with help from her friend Martin, who was so helpful, ensured that the shoot was a total success and will produce some great images.

Sophia was tremendously generous with the shooting time we had agreed on as we went well over the planned time due to many people being around that delayed some of the shots.

Can't recommend Sophia enough and would be very happy to shoot with her again.

I had another shoot with Sophia West couple of days ago. Had a great time as usual. It always fun to work with

her and we have giggles on every shoot.

Very professional girl, perfect figure, beautiful face and amazing dancing. She poses very well to any themed

shoot and very good with any photographer, professional or amateur and any model, professional or a newbie.

Will always love to work with her, she is a right star.

Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anyone!!

Can`t wait to shoot with her again.:)

Today I attended a location shoot organised by Sophia, Neonie La and Martin G at an industrial wasteland to shoot an Urbex themed photo shoot. What an absolutely brilliant day even the weather stayed fine.

This is my third shoot with Sophia and I'm just so impressed with how instinctively Sophia knows what I'm trying to create and then works tirelessly making sure we get the best results.

I feel very comfortable working with this lovely lady and we bring the best out of each other. We had such a fun day as always and if the results on the back of the camera are anything to go by I shall be sorting and editing images till Xmas.😀

One thing I must mention is Sophia's communication it is simply perfect not only does she ask the right questions Sophia engages with you and her dedication and enthusiasm is plain to see. This is backed up by a busy diary.

I'm already looking forward to our next shoot.

Thanks for all your hard work on the day

Regards

I had my second shoot a couple of days ago with the lovely Sophia, and this time it was a group shot. organised by Sophia.

Sophia was accompanied by Neonie La, and together they made a great team.

The sort of shots we were taking was something very different for me, so it was very interesting to see how the shots were set up, and thanks to the models hard work, i came away with some very nice and for me very different images.

It was a great pleasure to see and work with Sophia again and i look forward to another shoot with her in the future.

I would always recommend Sophia as a great model and lovely lady to work with, thanks again for an enjoyable day.
